Welcome Educators!
Thank you for visiting IES!
The IES Language Foundation offers foreign language classes at school sites as after or before school enrichment programs and in curriculum. IES hires and trains the teachers, provides the registration flyers, and provide all student materials. All you need to do is provide us with a room at your school and a school calendar… and contact us today for more information or to start a program at your school.
IES has programs in Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and Mandarin Chinese. IES Area Directors are located throughout the United States to work with you to start a program at your school.
IES believes that a language can not be separated from its culture, therefore our classes contribute to multicultural sensitivity and understanding in the community, state, nation and world. Learning a second language helps to prepare children for adult life in the competitive international world.
If you have an IES program at your school send us an email about how it is working for your school.

Learn Early - Learn Better

Many experts in the field of foreign languages have long maintained that those who begin learning a second language at an early age are better language learners. Linguists and neuro-biologists have both conducted research indicating that children have a greater capacity to learn and maintain language ability than adult learners. These early experiences also represent the skills most likely to stay with an
individual for life.
